Tampa (Temple Terrace) Reviews & Recognition

The love and commitment of our Goddard families inspires us every day. To help make each child’s learning experiences the best they can be, we are always happy to listen when parents share their expectations. Here’s what our families have to say.

  • Everything is so structured at Goddard. We get reports every day that detail what my child is learning. It's not done haphazardly.

  • That my child loves being at school there! Teachers are nice but have high expectations for behavior and academic rigor. Great care & education.

  • There are so many fantastic things about your school: The teachers are amazing, kind, fun, motivating and motivated, and skilled at differentiating education based on achievement levels;the children feel that they are part of a big family, your programs develop both academic skills and, most importantly in today's world, creativity and self-confidence; your directors listen to parental concerns - and actually act on them. Finally, the school has an open door policy: We get to talk to our son's teacher every single day, and the school makes us aware of any concerns or little victories immediately, which is so reassuring for a parent. We had my son in Montessori for two weeks; he hated it. We enrolled it in Goddard; he couldn't wait to go back even after the first day. In the seven months he has been there, he has bloomed into a happy little risk-taker who thinks out of the box.

  • A very well rounded hands-on approach to learning. Definitely feel our son is learning and progressing more quickly than he would have had we kept him home. The teaching staff are all amazing, dedicated, and compassionate as well, which further fosters a good learning environment.

    Corbin's Mother

    Infant Classroom

  • I appreciate how the school encourages children to learn in an environment which is structured but enjoyable. This allows children to learn at their own pace as well as allows them to discover and utilize problem solving skills to become independent individuals.

    Alane & Jason's Mother

  • The children are always doing something educational even during play

    Lunabel & Jasel's Mother

    Pre-K Classroom

  • The teachers are very communicative about lesson plans. The use of the Tadpole app is great for seeing daily progress, seeing what the kids are doing, and being able to follow-up on items at home or giving talking points to converse with the kids. The classrooms are always really clean and all the materials are in great shape.

    Patrick's Father

    Toddler Classroom

  • I love the daily updates. It helps me as a parent to reinforce what my daughter is learning at school. I also really appreciate how the teacher makes a point to get the kids outside everyday and that my daughter is staying active.

    Zach's Mother

  • The teachers are very involved with their student's developments and it is a fun, learning environment. Kids are not just put in front of a tv, there are NO tv's in the classrooms. Which is a plus!

  • The teachers and Staff are so attentive and patient. I love that my child is in an environment where she can play, learn and socialize with others.

    Amelia's Mother

    Toddler Classroom

  • I like that each day I receive a report on what was done that day what my child learned as well as his goal and whether or not he is meeting or exceeding that goal.

    Dyllon's Mother

    Infant Classroom

  • Very engaging, diversified, interesting and creative educational program! Always teaching in a fun way to promote learning at all levels.

    Carson's Mother

    Toddler Classroom

  • School report is very nice. Miss Tawanna is doing a very good job to list what my child eat during the day and time when she go potty.

    Virginia's Mother

    Toddler Classroom

  • I am very satisfied with the teachers' efforts to promote and monitor my child's physical and mental development. I recognize that this level of attention far exceeds that of many daycare services, and for this reason we do not consider Goddard to be daycare. In the morning, we drop Adeline off at school.

    Adeline's Father

    Infant Classroom

  • I like the fact that I-pads are used in the classroom, I like that pictures are taken and e-mailed to the parents explaining the daily activities. The more interactive the teachers are with the status and progress of their child the better.
